  • I hope that the medication works and you are feeling better soon!
  • I love green tea! I have 2 day. I love the fact that there are no calories and counts as water as well. I add two sugar to it so I do count the sugar, but I don't need to count the green tea because the box has everything listed as zero, lol! Yay for that! Does anyone know if green tea helps with weight loss? I know there…
  • My weekend was a disaster too. My husband and son had a cub camp to go to on the weekend so my mom stayed over at our house and my daughter, my mom and I had a girls weekend. My mom went grocery shopping and came back with a lot of treatsand they weren't so healthy. And she bought a bottle of nice wine so we had that at…
  • I just re-read your post and noticed what you said about your husband, lol! My husband eats a lot of food, and eats a lot of snack foods, pretty much whatever he wants in large portions and COMPLAINS that he he is 144lbs because he thinks he's too skinny, lmao! I find that so frustrating because I look at junk food and…
  • I feel like you do too sometimes. I barely lost any weight and I started in January. I eat the way I should, I excersize and in 2 months have lost only 5 pounds. After the third week I started taking measurements and that is where I am seeing POSITIVE results! Don't rely on the scale, it calculates everything from fat, to…
  • My thighs, I've always had big thighs. Since starting MFP in January I've managed to lose 4 inches off them, but I still have a ways to go. The body part I love...my husband says I have a cute butt, so I'll go with that, lmao!
  • Oh my goodness! The Tae Bo Bootcamp kicked my butt today. I bought it two weeks ago and I'm on week two, which is alternating between mission one and mission two. i did mission two today and I was feeling the burn. I haven't sweat so much ever. I have the resistance bands but I took the weights off and just used the…
  • I am so sorry. These are YOUR dreams and goals. No one has the right to take those away from you. Every day that you wake up and arn't working towards your goals is another day that you are going to build resentment towards him. If you are unhappy in your job, and you are feeling depressed, it's not a healthy way to live.…
  • Happy birthday! Tomorrow is a new day and it's important to treat yourself once and awhile. Hope you had a great birthday!
  • Oh wow, those sound so good! And healthy! Thanks for posting this!
  • I'm an emotional eatter too. When I feel the lowest and crave food to make me feel better, I come to the message board to see how well others are doing. It keeps me away from the kitchen and gives me motivation when I see that others are doing great and my will to succeed outweighs the need for comfort food. You can do…

  • 1 cup of cheerios, 1/2 cup of 2% milk coffee with 2 sugar and 1 tsp powdered creamer
  • I just entered my foods for today, yep, I totally blew it. Tomorrow is my weigh in day too :sad: Wish me luck!
  • Congratulations!!!
  • I don't know how this happened, but one day our house turned into the local zoo. Actually it was over a longer period than a day, lol! We have 3 cats, Princess, Pepper, and Tigger. We have a bearded dragon the kids named Reiko. My two kids each have a hamster, however my daughter (who is 6) experienced her first death on…
  • I understand how you feel. I was at a healthy weight 4 years ago and then my doctor started me on a medication to treat mild depression. I ended up gaining 30 lbs in less than 3 months. I felt so frustrated. The meds literally killed my metobolism and I craved sweets and carbs like never before. But if I ate them I gained…
  • I was running late trying to get the kids to school on time, so all I had for breakfast was an Activia yogurt. When I came home I excersized and then had 1 packet of apple and cinnamon hot cereal. Not sure if the yogurt and cereal would be combined as breakfast, but they were both eatten in the morning, lol!
  • Welcome! Wishing you the best of luck in reaching your goals!
  • Great job! Congrats!
  • Great job! You did awesome!
  • Thanks! I feel so great today! Gina, great job! 8 inches is awesome!!! I am so proud of you!
  • I've been working hard, counting everything I eat and staying within my 1200 calorie limit, excersizing regularly and the scale has barely budged. In three weeks I've lost 3 pounds! I got on the scale for my weigh in this morning and it said I lost 1 pound and I was feeling pretty disappointed. Then I did my measurements…
  • Thank you so much for the advice. I usually have one or two Lean Cuisines a day and make something for my family seperate because I'm still trying to figure out portion sizes, lol! I really like your idea of having soup, especially vegetable soup. I know, it was such a waste with the bacon, after I ate it I thought of all…
  • I'm new here and I'm tring so hard to stay on the right path. Up until today I was within my range for eatting, I'm having trouble though when I excersize and have to eat more food to consume the extra calories because I'm not hungry and having something like cereal (Special K) ends up boosting my calories, but pushing my…
  • I am praying you start feeling better soon. (((hugs))) I know that when you are feeling better you will be able to pick up where you left off. I have faith in you! Until then, take care of yourself and go see a doctor!
